z/OS Security Server RACF Messages and Codes
SA23-2291-00

IRR417I
UNABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE RACF SUBSYSTEM. IEFSSREQ RETURN CODE IS return-code.

Explanation

A RACF® function requiring the RACF subsystem was unable to communicate with the subsystem. Report this message to your systems programmer. The possible functions, and the effect of the failure are as follows:
  1. RRSF password synchronization
    RACF attempted to process a password change request for a user. The password change is made on this system's RACF database. However, if associations exist with another user on this or a remotely connected system, the passwords are not synchronized.
  2. PKCS #7 enveloping
    RACF attempted to process a password or password phrase change request for a user. The RACF database on this system is updated accordingly. However, a PKCS #7 envelope was not created for this update. An existing envelope might exist for the user’s previous password or password phrase.
  3. LDAP event notification
    A RACF profile was changed but the LDAP change log entry was not created. Applications that require the change log entry for RACF event notifications do not know about this profile change.
  4. IRRUT200 Activation
    PARM=ACTIVATE was specified on IRRUT200. This message results in IRRUT200 ending with RC8 with the backup RACF data set copied but still inactive.
  5. Kerberos Key Generation
    RACF attempted to process a password or password phrase change request for a user. The RACF database on this system is updated accordingly. However, a Kerberos key was not created for this update. An existing key might exist for the user’s previous password or password phrase.

System action

The system continues processing.

System programmer response

The return code indicated in this message reflects the return code from the MVS™ IEFSSREQ subsystem interface. See z/OS MVS Using the Subsystem Interface for a list of the possible values and their explanations.

Ensure that the RACF subsystem is not shut down. A return code of 8 or 12 indicates an installation or RACF subsystem configuration. See z/OS Security Server RACF System Programmer's Guide for configuration considerations for the RACF subsystem.
